This shop piqued my interest--any place that sells fair trade good gets a second look from me. And after seeing Stephanie's review I made it one of my first stops after I arrived home to visit my family. This is a great store with truly beautiful items. Tatiana, the owner (whose name I hope I didn't misspell but I confess I didn't ask how) is so welcoming, friendly, and passionate about sharing the story of the items she sells. She is eager to help you find the perfect item. Visual merchandising is eye catching and would have made me stop in if I was wandering the area on foot. This store is small but there is a LOT of stuff here: sweaters, ponchos, earrings, little stuffed animals, socks, gloves, a few children's garments, handbags, and more. She mentioned that since the items are handmade, she is unable to give specific/standard sizing, but she's putting in a fitting room area so you can try on. I saw several items that I coveted but I'm fat and they weren't in sizes that would fit me. However, my mom may benefit from the fact that I am unlikely to find something sized for me here, haha. And I did buy her a poncho for starters, which will be a gift from us for Mother's Day. It's so beautiful, and I really think she will love it for those cool but not cold days that we can get here. I'm broad shouldered so the poncho didn't sit on me the way I wanted but I may purchase one at a later time (especially if there are a few that are a tiny bit larger). The prices are incredibly reasonable for the quality of the garment. I really enjoyed shopping at this store, talking with the owner and meeting her kiddo who was keeping her company there, and exploring her wares. I purchased a little crochet llama for my baby and a friend's baby because they were just too cute. She also included garment care instructions in the bag for the shawl, which is definitely appreciated. I will recommend this to everyone I know and it's great whether you're looking for a gift or something for yourself. I think the future is bright for this adorable little shop. #1700 April 29, 2024 read more
